The yarn expert I'm married to says she first needs the answers to these follow up questions:
1. What kind of fiber? Wool? Cotton? Acrylic? Other?
2. What kind of pattern? Solid, variegated, gradient?
And then she can rec you things.
She says her favorite yarn, if you want merino, is Malabrigo. It's very light, so sock weight is very light fingering weight, and if you want regular fingering weight, buy the sport weight. She says the texture is the softest wool ever. It's not cheap, but it's not outrageous, approximately in your price range.
But for more specific recs, she needs more data. ;)
-ugh it's such a pain to fix (or rip back) knitting mistakes!
Hahaha I hear this ALL the time!
Anyway, I've been wondering how your yarn crafts were going, and I'm glad for the update. :)
